Yesterday everyone shopping was talking about the snow that was coming. It did not hit us...not even a flake, but it was cold and damp. It has basically been cold and rainy for a week. Ugh. I guess it has me in the mood to get going for winter vignettes. Hence, the cute snowy penguins...all dressed in birch bark...

LOVE !!

With there sugared beaks....they are so sassy.

they seem to be all amiss about all the people walking around the shop today....

one little girl even called them seagulls...the nerve !!

I found these metal numbers !! They look great on the tree !!

I hope you enjoyed my first glimpse of winter. It is going to be a fabulous Holiday season. I am doing an event in a couple of weeks, which will take me a way from the shop for 4 days during my transition week to flip the entire shop from Fall / harvest / Halloween over to Christmas. It is really throwing me off...but, you must adapt to the time table and move forward...

That is why I am starting so early.

Shop news !!

Lori Miller, Owner and Author

The Round Barn Potting Company is an adventure in design and decor. I began this adventure June 01, 2007. My brick and mortar shop was housed in a large round barn, hence the name of my company. I have recently closed the brick and mortar shop but my mind continues to create. The blog reflects my style, which is a mix of vintage and architectural pieces, casually blended with new product. My home is a place to come for daily rejuvenation and inspiration. I will post as many pictures as I can. I will fill the online shop when I can and can ship almost all merchandise in the US. You can always check on product that you see by emailing me at loriatthebarn@ymail.com
